Recently Walter has been wanting to remove language features that
don't need to be kept to simplify the language.
It seems everybody agrees that binary literals are not a worthy
candidate for removal, but one thing that I kept thinking about
was @property. As far as I know, hardly anyone actually uses its
semantic behaviors, and the ones that it does have which are
incomplete are special cases that don't benefit us all that much.
I was going to post this yesterday, but it turns out I am not
alone in thinking this can be removed safely (can be swapped to a
UDA to prevent code breakage without any language additions).
So, who uses @property semantics?
